Ranking the Bowl Games

[Goober]

Am I the only person that thinks Arkansas OSU is must see TV? I like when people act like TP is an important player, or even worse, a quality player...

It's almost as bad as when people try telling me Ryan mallet is a good player. Osu will win by twenty, just because mallet is playing.

I love the BCS busters going to BCS games, but I think at this point in the year facing Wisconsin is the worst opponent.
If you face a team like Auburn, all you gotta do is hurt/slow down their star player and you're in the game. Face Wisconsin, on the the other hand, and you gotta shut down three running backs and Scott Tolzien to win. Not gonna happen.

There is still only one football. What are they gonna do, run the wishbone?

He's saying if you shut down or injure Monte Ball, you still have to face off against James White and John Clay. Not to mention Scott Tolzien plays great because the defense is so worried about the run. There's no better play-action in college football. The depth of Wisconsin is ridiculous.

Bobby Petrino's teams always have the best play action, and i hate that man and especially hate Arkansas... TCU has the most balanced team in CFB this year, so it should be a good game...

 

[Rayman]

At the risk of sounding lazy, I pretty much agree with this list.

 

[Senser81]

Good list, but I think this is the worst game...

19. Bridgeport Education Holiday Bowl
No. 18 Nebraska vs. Washington
10 p.m. ET, Dec. 30
It's a rare bowl rematch from the regular season, and the Cornhuskers routed the Huskies 56-21 in Seattle on Sept. 18. Washington quarterback Jake Locker will try to rebound from the worst outing of his career; he completed only 4 of 20 passes with two interceptions against Nebraska's Blackshirt defense.

How completely pointless is this...not to mention that both Nebraska and Washington are playing their worst football of the year right now.

Nebraska, yes.
Washington, not so much. I mean they've played abysmal football all season, but have won their last 3 games. So, I'd say they're playing their best football of the season.

But I totally agree, it'll be a junk game. After we lost the Big XII game, I would rather us be done. A 10-3 vs a 6-6? I dont ever want to see that poor of a "post season" matchup. And on top of it, we've already played the team, and will again next season.

Yeah, I haven't really been following Washington this year. I just assumed they were playing bad football. Whatever happened to Tyrone Willingham?

 

[Tengo Juego]

I think Willingham is retired.

Probably somewhere golfing and laughing about how he's getting paid by both the University of Washington and the University of Notre Dame...still :smh:.

I think Willingham is retired.

The next time the NCAA finds a school lacking in institutional control, they should force them to hire Willingham and keep him for 5 years.

I think the last year ND had to pay him was last season.

I hope so.

I'm going to watch this one to see if Locker can redeem himself for his lol-worthy performance earlier this year against the Huskers.
